Chicago Minor League Review

The place for all Chicago minor league team Information

OK, more scores and games.  We still have some cross-town action going on in the Northern League.  That seems to happen a lot.  The Joliet and Gary matchup finally ended.  Now the Flyers and Joliet are facing off and last night’s game seems like it was an interesting one.

Last night more games were played and more jockeying for position in the post-season was had. Thankfully the weather has continued to hold out nicely so no more disrupted games. That end of the season is coming like a speeding train for all of these leagues. While that means many of […]

The weather has turned quite nice here in Chicago.  Although it is supposed to get warm today.  Still, the baseball season is slowly winding down and it is really getting to be time to prepare for the playoffs in all of these leagues.  Thankfully, no rain last night to muck up the schedule and to […]

It was another busy weekend for the Bryan.  OK, I don’t really refer to myself as “the Bryan.”  I did have a story I wrote for Northwest Avenues magazine about the Schaumburg Flyers get published finally.  It looks awesome.  If you happen to see a copy somewhere, pick it up.  It is the cover story.
